ALASKA AIRLINES PARTNERSHIP UPDATE

Our Partnership with
Alaska Airlines has ended  

Delta and Alaska Airlines together have reached a decision to end our partnership. This is a positive milestone for both airlines as Alaska focuses on its merger with Virgin America and Delta focuses on expanding service from Sea-Tac. We want to keep you up to speed as the way the SkyMiles and Mileage Plan™ programs work together has changed.

WHAT THIS MEANS:

  • SkyMiles Members will no longer earn and redeem miles with Alaska Airlines as of May 1, 2017.
  • Medallion® Members will no longer receive elite benefits when flying with Alaska Airlines as of May 1, 2017. 
  • The changes will not affect the benefits you always enjoy when flying with Delta.
